XDCam MXF & Premiere Pro Related Issues:

• Can anyone suggest a method for changing the native XDCam MXF files associated with the BPAV folder that comes directly off the SxS card from Sony XDCam camera to a Premiere Pro usable file that does not use the XDCam Transfer software?

• Is there another piece of software that can convert the XDCam MXF files quicker, or can anyone offer a guide on how to alter the actual XDCam MXF file and make it a Premiere Pro compatible .mov file?

• I have a few clips in XDCam MXF format on a hard drive that I need to import into Premiere Pro. I’ve tried the XDCAM Transfer from Sony, but it keeps saying no clips found.

• I’m shooting F55 in HD mode. I wants to use my Mac to convert the XDCam MXF clips into MOV files. The editor uses Premiere Pro on a Mac.

• Is there any new fangled converter that will allow me to simply convert the XDCam MXF files to .mov files that Premiere Pro will recognize?
